Catfish, you can't trust Manchin! He is a Dem and he can be pressured by leadership to do as they wish, and he has more often than not obeyed his masters within the party.
Manchin votes against the party line once in a blue moon. He cannot be counted on anything approaching a rational decision.
It is important to win both senate seats in Georgia. The Republican Party cannot lose anything to the Dems, not now, not ever again. As it was indicated today, the Squad has picked up radical communists as part of their gang, literally doubling their numbers in Congress, including BLM leaders. If you think these pukes were bad before, just wait!
